How it works

Three messages to a working store.

  1. 1

    Say hello

    Message Oyeza on WhatsApp with your business name and what you sell. Your store is live at yourname.oyeza.co.za straight away.

  2. 2

    Send what you sell

    “add muffins, choc and vanilla, R30”. Oyeza reads it back, and it is on your store. Change prices, stock and hours the same way.

  3. 3

    Buyers order and pay

    Buyers order from your store and pay by card into your own Yoco account. Every order and booking arrives in your chat.

Who it's for Examples

Goods or services, township or town.

Each card opens an example store, built the way Oyeza builds them. The businesses are invented and the photos are illustrative.

Questions

Straight answers.

Who holds the money?

You do. Buyers pay by card into your own Yoco account, and Yoco pays it into your bank. Oyeza never touches it.

Is Oyeza live?

Not yet. We are building it now and opening first to a small group of founding sellers. Email hey@oyeza.co.za to be one of them.

Do I need an app or a computer?

No. You run your store by sending WhatsApp messages. Your buyers only need the link to your store.

What will it cost?

We will publish the price before anyone pays, and our founding sellers help us set it.

What can I sell?

Goods and services: food, clothing, crafts, beauty, repairs, washes and more. Anything Yoco does not allow for card payments cannot be sold through Oyeza.

Stay safe

Oyeza will never ask for your PIN, password or one-time code.

  • We only write from an @oyeza.co.za address, or from the Oyeza WhatsApp number you signed up with.
  • We never ask you to scan a QR code, link WhatsApp to another device, or install anything.
  • Setting up is free and done by message. Anyone offering to "set up your Oyeza" for a fee is not us.
  • Your buyers pay into your own Yoco account. Oyeza never asks you to move money.

Something feel off? Stop, and forward it to support@oyeza.co.za.
